(a) Public funds, property or credit shall be used only for public purposes.

(b) The State, units of local government and school districts shall incur obligations for payment or make payments from public funds only as authorized by law or ordinance.

In that she has:

• used public property and funds for personal benefit, therefore not for a public purpose in violation of Article VIII Section 1(a) of the Illinois Constitution
• incurred obligations for payment to individuals employed by FSG Painters not authorized by law or ordinance in violation of Article VIII Section 1(b) of the Illinois Constitution.
